Supporting Metrics or Evidence
TREAT’s IPCC and Progress Notes modules offer integrated Best Practice Guidelines (BPGs) developed in partnership with researcher Dr. Diane Doran at the University of Toronto. This module incorporates best practice guidelines into the care plan, delivering vital, pertinent guidelines to care givers at the point in time when they are making treatment decisions. The BPG options are available as canned-text which is accessed automatically using an incremental search feature. This database can be managed by the administrator, so any updates or organization specific best practices can be incorporated directly into the TREAT system. The standardization provided by this feature offers allows clinical decision support professionals to report against these text fields and improve the organization’s practices to achieve better client care. For example, these reports can help professionals to measure the effectiveness of certain interventions in the treatment of specific issues.
